Deployment of CCS could provide up to 20% of the emission reduction required to stabilise atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases over the next 50 years. The reduction in harmful emissions could be greater than any other single energy technology, including nuclear and renewables. A key driver for CCS is cost of capture of CO2. The vision for the ETI’s CCS Next Generation Capture Technologies focus area is that the ETI will have supported the development of a transformational capture technology to a stage where it is ready for incorporation into a full scale demonstration or first of a kind (FOAK) build by 2015, enabling such a plant to be complete and operational by 2020. To support selection of the most appropriate technology, the ETI commissioned a series of projects under its Flexible Research Programme to produce outline designs and technoeconomic assessmentsof power generation plant with different capture technologies
